Chris got up from his chair and walked to the door. He had already said everything he needed to say, so he would not interfere with Jean's alone time any longer. When his hand touched the door, Chris suddenly remembered something.
"Hey." Chris turned to his friend, "Tomorrow is Sasha's birthday party. Did you forget?"

Jean didn't want to make Lilia even more anxious by attending another woman's birthday party.
